Randi Dumfor shares the reasons of his return to Skënderbeu…

Randi Dumfur couldn’t secure a move during the summer transfer window, so he was forced to return to Skënderbeu, where he has an ongoing contract.

Randi expressed his gratitude: “I want to thank Skënderbeu for reopening the door for my return, and I’m very happy about it.” Although he was approached by a club in Arabia, that opportunity fell through. He provided details: “There were several reasons the transfer didn’t happen, primarily related to documentation issues.”

It seems that objective reasons were at play, but what matters now is that Skënderbeu has strengthened its defense. Randi stated, “I’m ready to play in the next match, as I’ve been training individually.”

Team officials also confirmed that Randi is in very good physical condition.
